Hello friends~
It has been a little while since I have posted and so I thought I would take a few minutes to update my homestead blog this evening. Since the last time I have written we went on a trip to Colorado in early January and then to Florida in February. So we have been very busy here in our home with travels, homeschooling, and everyday life. This past weekend we had a wonderful time in eastern TN and I wrote about this on my Heritage Homeschooling blog.
Right now we are snowed in at home here in West Central Indiana. This week we had a winter storm come through our area and it brought 16 inches of snow. We live up a hill in the middle of a wooded area and we have 3-4 foot drifts and so we are literally snowed in and cannot leave our home. Most people say that a winter storm like this has not occurred in decades and so many were not quite prepared with how to handle all of this snow.
Since we have been stranded at home, the girls and I have been cooking quite a bit. I have made chili, spanish rice (which ended up being too spicy hot), and tonight I made a big pot of vegetable soup. The girls made brownies and whole-wheat oatmeal raisin cookies.
Recently a friend gave me a set of Sue Gregg cookbooks and I have been very pleased with all of the healthy recipes that are featured.
So this is what we have been up to lately...
I hope that you are all well and blessed~
